Welcome

Lion Rock Tea Rooms — a tea room, but not as you know it.

Yes, we serve tea… but think loose-leaf blends in proper pots, barista-crafted coffees and fully licensed if you fancy something a little stronger. Add in freshly cooked food, table service, and a collection of cosy, quirky rooms to relax in… throw in a handful of awards and you’ve got far more than just a cuppa — you’ve got an experience.

Nestled in the heart of Cheddar Gorge, in one of the oldest, most photographed, and most documented buildings beneath the world-famous Lion Rock, Lion Rock Tea Rooms has been trading since 1908. Over the years, it has earned numerous awards, including — for the second consecutive time — the Somerset Life Magazine Best Independent Tea/Coffee Shop Award, along with the Bristol, Bath & Somerset Tourism Awards Gold Award for Best Tea/Coffee Shop and the Somerset West Tourism Awards Bronze Award for Best Tea/Coffee Shop in the West Country.

With seven uniquely themed rooms, featuring wood burners and open fires in winter and a secluded garden for summer, you’ll be truly spoilt for choice on where to sit and when to visit.
